| Grandma's surprise |
A few weeks ago, I planted myself on the couch to take my daily afternoon nap. Hubby was at work so I knew I had plenty of time for an uninterrupted nap. I had only been down for a few minutes when I heard the front door open (I thought I had locked it). I yelled "are you home already?" I heard the sweet voice of my TN daughter saying "We are! and we are here for two weeks!" What a great surprise! I had no idea and they arrived just before Mother's Day.... my April and my Annabelle. I had not seen them since Christmas, so it was just the most perfect Mother's Day surprise.
It was so cute because Annabelle (now 2 years old) sensed all the excitement in the room, and she danced around and shouted excitement with us!
Then after this little guy graduated from preschool, he called me on the phone one day to let me know he was out of school for summer vacation. (he is my facetime buddy) He wanted to know if he could spend a week with Grandma. Of course!! His mom drove for 1.5 hours and I drove for 1.5 hours and we met in Raleigh, so I could bring this precious sweetie home with me for the week. Papa took us out on the boat, which was really fun.

| Before the week was over with Chandler, this big guy called me to tell me he would be out of school later that week. He wanted to know if he could come home with me when we brought Chandler back to Raleigh the next week. Of course!! So I had another fun week with another sweet soul. |

The little girl in the pink dress (Brinley Kate) hasn't had her turn yet, as her family is heading to the beach this week. But soon will be her turn to come stay with Grandma and Papa for a few days.
Grandma was actually thankful for the break, because as much fun as it was, Grandma was exhausted!! God knew what he was doing when he made raising children a young woman's job. ha ha
